If I Only Had More Money

Don't you sometimes just wish money grew on trees? I know right now I do. When we first starting talking about where we wanted to get married I said that I really wanted to get married outside. Because of our budget we thought our wedding was going to be pretty informal because we couldn't afford something really spectacular.

But now that the planning has really started I have decided that I want something nicer than just informal. So now my goal is to have a semi-formal wedding with our budget. That is coming out to be harder than I anticipated. I want a nice tent and a dance floor so more than just 20 people can dance at the same time. I want nice decorations and to put it simply I just want it to be PERFECT! Is that too much to ask for?

I plan on only getting married once and I want it to be the wedding of my dreams. I am probably going to have to make sacrifices along the way and should start getting used to that. We are VERY thankful to have a friend take our pictures as their gift to us and a friend's mom make both of our cakes as her gift to us. I know I stress about EVERYTHING but that's just my nature. I will try to work on that.

If anyone knows of any cheap places to get linens, silverware and plates, please let me know!

Hey! I know what you mean - Tony and I had a budget and we stuck to it! It's hard especially when you see everything available to you. I made a lot of stuff by hand to save money. Let me know if you need any help!

Also, http://www.onestopparty.com/gallery.cfm - one stop party shop is a great place. We rented stuff from there for our rehearsal dinner since we had it at my in-laws house.

Good luck with everything!!
